A selection of films based on Stephen King's works will stream for the first time as part of the online Stephen King Rules Dollar Baby Film Festival.

As part of the online festival, Barker Street will screen 25 submissions by filmmakers from around the world, many of which have never been seen by an international audience. The films were created as part of King's Dollar Baby Deal, which has allowed up-and-coming filmmakers to adapt his previously-unproduced short stories for the big screen since 1977.

The Stephen King Rules festival will be co-hosted by Barker Street Cinema partners James Douglas and Norm Coyne, who made their own Dollar Baby adaptation of King's Sherlock Holmes mystery The Doctor's Case three years ago. That film has won 15 awards at more than 40 international festivals and will also screen during the festival.

Other films streaming during the event include One for the Road (Quarterly Entertainment LLC), The Boogeyman (Evil Panda Films), The Last Rung on the Ladder (Talisman Films), My Pretty Pony (12 Media), and The Passenger (Grunerfilms). The full schedule is available now at BarkerStreetCinema.com.

The Stephen King Rules Dollar Baby Film Festival will be held April 23-25 on Barker Street Cinema's private Vimeo channel and will also include interviews and panel discussions with the filmmakers themselves. Viewers can also interact with the festival by following on Twitter at @stephenkingrlz or by following the hashtag #StephenKingRules.
